Natural rights inherent in people ... a right to alter, reform, or abolish the government |
|
Oregon Constitution.
Section 1. Natural rights inherent in people. We declare that all men, when they form a social compact are equal in right: that all power is inherent in the people, and all free governments are founded on their authority, and instituted for their peace, safety, and happiness; and they have at all times a right to alter, reform, or abolish the government in such manner as they may think proper.
....
What about your State's Constitution? Does it allow for abolishing the government by the People?

1. From the constitution of North Carolina: |
|
Sec. 3. Internal government of the State.
The people of this State have the inherent, sole, and exclusive right of regulating the internal government and police thereof, and of altering or abolishing their Constitution and form of government whenever it may be necessary to their safety and happiness; but every such right shall be exercised in pursuance of law and consistently with the Constitution of the United States.

2. This ties to the US Constitution. Oregon's does not mention the US. |
